- Faculty friends at @ufl.edu, in response to Rufo's attack on Ono, r/wingers say "but he closed the U-M DEI office, he's one of us!" It is important to know that he was 100% pro-DEI as long as it earned him 1.3M/year at U-M. He closed our DEI office AFTER Florida offered him 3M/year.
- Before there's an offer, it might have been auditioning. What's the point after?May 7, 2025 00:17
- to make sure he gets confirmed by DeSantis and his crowd.
- that seems tenuous
- Why? He needs Florida donors to make a go of it, he needs to be in DeSantis good graces, and he doesn't want to start out with a Rufo-shaped monkey around his neck (though he'll have that for a while, until Rufo caves because Hosseini's money is more important than his culture war)
